Trucker shortages rise again - Dallas Business Journal

11:46 PM | Posted by Kathy Hines | | Edit Post
Trucker shortages rise again - Dallas Business Journal
http://dallas.bizjournals.com/dallas/stories/2010/10/04/story5.html

Trucking companies are boosting advertising and recruiting, paying higher wages and providing back-office assistance to help tame an old issue that is returning as the economy improves: finding enough drivers.
Take Greatwide Logistics Services LLC. The Dallas trucking company has ramped up ad campaigns and has field recruiters looking for candidates. It also has a full-time call center that takes calls generated from its marketing efforts.

Wages can average close to $50,000 annually for company drivers and between $110,000 and $120,000 for owner/operators, who can take home 50 percent to 60 percent of that.

The firm also has programs to help independent contractor owner/operators — who make up around 4,000 of the company’s 5,000 drivers — with everything from handling the nondriving side of their work to buying health insurance.

“It’s the No. 1 issue in our company,” said Dick Metzler, the company’s chief commercial officer, of driver recruiting.

The reason: Greatwide needs to fill 800 openings, company officials said. With about $1 billion in 2009 revenue, Greatwide is the 21st largest for-hire trucking carrier in the country, according to Transport Topics, a trade publication.
A 2005 study by a Washington, D.C.-area trade group called the American Trucking Associations found the industry was short about 20,000 long-haul drivers. Tavio Headley, an economist at the organization, said he doesn’t have a current figure on how many drivers the market needs, but believes from anecdotal evidence that the years-long shortage of drivers has come back after the recession.

There were a little more than 3 million truck drivers across the country in 2009, according to federal Labor Department numbers that Headley cited.

“I’m not surprised it’s returned, based on the fact that the underlying fundamentals (that caused it) didn’t change,” he said. “What I’m surprised about is how quickly it returned ... In the summer of last year, there wasn’t much talk of a measurable shortage.”

Indeed, according to ATA data, 3,065 trucking companies with five or more trucks went bankrupt in 2008 alone. The industry also lost many smaller firms and independent owner/operators. In addition, the trucking companies that survived the carnage laid off drivers and parked trucks, while people who lost jobs in other industries gravitated to trucking.

All of that, combined with a 24 percent drop in the number of loads hauled during the recession, resulted in the abrupt disappearance of a driver shortage that had bedeviled the industry for years.

Greatwide saw the driver shortfall return in February of this year, according to Rob Newell, the company’s director of capacity management. “We rely on independent contractors,” he said. “The industry lost over 25,000 owner/operators (of trucks) in the recession.”

Hauling more freight

To be sure, the recovery is fragile, and there’s no telling whether it will last.

An advance index of for-hire truck tonnage — meaning the weight of freight, measured in tons, transported via truck — fell 2.7 percent in August, after gaining 1.5 percent in July, according to ATA statistics.

Overall, though, trucking companies are hauling more freight than they were during the recession, and the smaller industry is suddenly finding itself grappling with the same old driver shortage.

Headley doesn’t think it will go away anytime soon because the problems that created it haven’t been resolved.

The 2005 ATA study cited several factors that caused the shortage. Among them:
  • An aging workforce. Trucking companies have had problems attracting younger drivers, who have different expectations than previous generations about things like how much time they can spend with their families and how many nights they can sleep in their own bed.
  • Lack of ethnic and gender diversity among drivers. White males account for the majority of truckers. Headley estimated that in 2009, non-whites accounted for only about 34 percent of the driver population. And women make up only 5 percent of the trucker workforce.
  • Demographic trends going against the industry. The size of the population of white males between the ages of 35 and 54 was projected to fall by 3 million between 2004 and 2014, the ATA study said.
Meanwhile, the growth of the overall labor force in the United States will slow sharply, from 1.4 percent currently to only 0.5 percent by 2012, Headley said.

To address the driver shortage, the industry needs to look at a national program for targeting younger workers, Headley said. And it needs to promote diversity, he said.
